37 
Badge of 

The Holland Society of New York. 

ADOPTED MARCH 30th, 1887. 




Ihe most significant medal, from au historical point of view, which 
was ever struck in Holland, is the so-called "Beggars' Medal." It is 
the memorial of the very first steps of that march towards civil and 
religious liberty in which the men of the Netherlands, after heroic 
struggles, finally led the world. And, therefore, it is a most appropriate 
token for us to wear, who have received in largest measure, in this New 
Republic, the benefits of the noble conflict of our Dutch forefathers. 

In Bizot's " Medallic History of the Republic of Holland," published 
at Amsterdam in 1690, the place of honor is given to this famous 



38 

" Geuzenpenning." The following description of its origin is trans- 
lated from that work, with a few additions from the accounts given by 
Prof. J= W. Kitchin, of Oxford : 

"In the year 1565, immediately after the decrees of the Council of 
Trent were promulgated, Philip II. determined to put them in forfce 
throughout his dominions. Accordingly, he now made a more vehe- 
ment attack upon the reformers; and then it was, in 1566, that the 
Netherland nobles, led by Count Brederode, signed the famous ' Com- 
promise,' with which the open rebellion of the provinces begins. 
Margaret of Parma was Philip's regent in the Low Countries. Before 
her Brederode appeared with the Protest against the Inquisition and 
other innovations which the King proposed to introduce into Holland. 
He was accompanied by three hundred noblemen, who had bound 
themselves together for the preservation of the Liberties of the Prov- 
inces. The Duchess of Parma appeared to be much disturbed at the 
sight of such a multitude of noble remonstrants, but the Count of 
Barlemont, who stood beside her, begged her not to be alarmed, ' For,' 
said he, in French, 'they are only beggars.' 

"The next day, the 6th of April, 1566, as the confederates were 
sitting together at dinner, and talking of a name for their new Party, - 
they remembered Barlemont's sneer, and cried out, 'Vivent les 
Gueux,' — ' Hurrah for the beggars ! ' When dinner was over, Brederode, 
having hung a beggar's wallet around his neck, filled a wooden bowl 
with wine and drank the health of the company, declaring that for his 
part, he was ready to sacrifice life, property, everything, in defense of 
his country's freedom. The room rang with applause,- — 'Hurrah for 
the Beggars ! ' The cup was passed from hand to hand. Every man 
drank the same toast and made the same pledge of devotion. And 
thus it was that the name of the Gueux, or Beggars, which has become 
famous throughout Europe, had its origin at a social feast; for it often 
happens that the most important and serious affairs begin amid jests 
and laughter. 

"Soon afterward the men of the new party appeared at Brussels, 



39 

dressed in coarse gray cloth, with wooden cups attached to their belts, 

AND WITH THIS MEDAL HANGING ABOUT THEIR NECKS." 

One of these medals was worn by William of Orange at the time of 
his assassination. 

The following is the description, translated by the first Secretary 
of the Society, Mr. Geo. W. Van Siclen, from Van Loon's " Neder- 
landsche Penningen " : 

"The nobles assembled several times in different places to find 
methods to protect the liberties of their country from the perils which 
menaced them from all sides. Those who showed themselves most 
zealous and most ardent upon these occasions were Henri de Brederode; 
Louis of Nassau, brother of the Prince of Orange; Florent de Pallant, 
Count of Culembourg; and William, Count of Bergen. They pushed 
the affair so far that meetings were held, first in Breda, and afterward 
at Hoogstraten. 

'•At the latter place several discontented nobles projected an alliance, 
which, going from hand to hand, was in a short time accepted and 
sigried by more than four hundred persons, all of whom promised to be 
in Brussels on a certain day. To give' greater eclat to this league, 
Henry of Brederode, as chief of the confederates, found it convenient 
to make his. entry into that city on the 3d of April, A. D. 1566, ac- 
companied by Count Louis of Nassau and many nobles, followed by a 
great number of servants. The fourth day of that month was employed 
in preparations and in awaiting the Counts of Bergen and of Culem- 
bourg. Although the following day these lords had not yet arrived, 
the confederates did not delay in demanding an audience. It was 
granted to them, and the Princess Regent appointed the hour of noon 
to avoid the tumultuous concourse of the populace. 

"The time named being near, Brederode and Count Louis were seen 
to leave the residence of Culembourg and to walk with a decent 
gravity toward the court, preceded by more than three hundred gentle- 
men, of whom they themselves formed the last rank. When they ar- 
rived before the Duchess, Brederode spoke for all, and, having finished 



40 

his harangue, he presented to Her Highness a petition signed in the 
name of all that illustrious troop. In this petition, after having rep- 
resented their obedience and their fidelity to the King, they declared 
that, notwithstanding the hatred that their procedure would very likely 
draw upon them, they would risk, in the service of the King, showing 
to Her Highness the dangerous condition of affairs, and warning her. 
if the protection of the Inquisition were continued, of the terrible con- 
sequences which they foresaw would shake the State to its foundations. 
They demanded, secondly, that the edict of the King relating to th. 
Inquisition, and relating to religion in general, be reformed by the 
Assembly of the States- General, and that, while awaiting this, the exe- 
cution of this edict should be suspended, as a protection against the 
sad evils of which they were already, and of which they would be more 
and more, the fertile source. 

"The Regent, hiding as well as possible the uneasiness and indigna- 
tion which this affair caused her, received the petition, and replied to 
the supplicants that she would examine into their demands with the 
Lords of the Council, and that in a short time she would let them 
know her decision. With this response, the confederate lords returned 
to Culembourg's residence in the same order and with the same 
gravity with which they had left it. 

"After the Regent had deliberated on the petition of the nobles, 
that Princess replied the following day in writing that she would rep- 
resent to the King their first demand in the most favorable manner 
possible, but that she was obliged to r,efuse absolutely the second, 
because the matter was not in her power. 

"While this affair was thus treated at the palace of the Princess, the 
populace insulted the confederate nobles by the opprobrious epithet 
of gueux, which those who understood French badly changed into 
genzen, which afterward became very common as the name of a party 
or sect. Others say that the 'author of the sobriquet was the l^aron 
of Barlemont, who, seeing the Regent surprised at the sight of so 
many nobles, tried to encourage her by saying, ' Ce ne sont que des 



gueux.' However that may be, this name was received by the nobles 
as a precious epithet, and soon became the most honorable title of that 
illustrious league. 

"The 6th of April, Brederode, being at dinner with other lords of 
his party at Culembourg's, put around his neck a wallet, and filling 
with wine a wooden cup, like that worn by the beggars, made all the 
guests follow his example. He declared to them at the same time 
that, while alv.-ays remaining faithful to his King, not only would he 
risk everything in defence of the liberties of the country, although 
he might be reduced to carrying a wallet, but he was even ready to 
give up his life in so good a cause. All those who were at the feast, 
having in turn taken the wallet and the cup, made the same declaration 
one after the other, in the midst^of a continual cry of ' Viveiit les gueux/' 

" Several of these nobles appeared the next day in the streets dressed 
in gray frieze, and carrying at the girdle, as a badge of honor, a small 
wallet and a little wooden cup or calabash. 

"Then (A. D. 1566), as now (A. D. 1732), the wooden bowl was in 
Brabant, like the wallet, a distinctive mark, and so to speak, a livery 
of beggars. Furnished with this necessary utensil of their profession, 
they went certain days of the week to the cloisters, where, after having 
taken part in the catechising, they each received, according as he had 
answered well or badly, a portion of soup left over by the monks. 

" It was by this low and despised method that the Professor, Thomas 
Stapleton, was able to reach the highest degree of erudition, notwith- 
standing his poverty and low birth. Sure, thanks to his porringer, of 
victuals which were absolutely necessary to him, he applied himself first 
to the languages, and afterwards to the higher sciences, with such 
success that he was honored with the most distinguished professorship 
in the University of Louvain. He never forgot his porringer. In the 
feasts which they gave when he was elevated to this important charge, 
not only did he then cause the first toast to be drunk in that cup, then 
ornamented with a foot of silver, but he desired that after his death it 
should be added to the rich ornaments of his marble tomb, as an ex- 



42 

ample and as a beacon for other distinguished men of genius, the 
meanness of whose extraction might seem to condemn them to dark- 
ness. 

"The reader must pardon me this digression, which I would not 
have made but from the same motive which caused this great man to 
parade his beggar's bowl. 

" The gourd or bottle had its origin from the usage made of it by 
the pilgrims — that class of people who, to perform a penance or to 
fulfill certain vows, undertake a journey to the distant shrine of some 
saint, like that of St. James in Spain or of. Loretto in Italy. They are 
obliged to go there begging by the way, and they carry this bottle- 
gourd, or calabash, attached to the girdle, for the purpose of carrying 
water for their use when they have to traverse dry and arid parts of 
the country. For this reason these allied nobles made use both of the 
porringer and the wallet as an emblem of poverty, and to turn into 
pleasantry the name of beggars which had been given to them with so 
much indignity. This is not all. These lords, wishing to engrave on 
each other's memory the vow which each had made > to defend the 
privileges of the country, even to carrying the wallet, took pride in 
wearing on the breast certain medals attached to ribbons, and very 
often joined with a porringer and a gourd." 

The form adopted by the Holland Society is a fac-simile of the one 
to which are attached two such porringers and a gourd or bottle, and 
shows on its face the armed bust of Phillip II. of Spain, with the first 
half of the motto, "en tout fidelles au roi," and on the reverse two 
wallets, between the straps of which are two hands joined, with the 
remainder of the motto, "jusqu'a porter la b.esace," together with 
the date, 1566, the figures of which are, however, separated, one in 
each corner formed by the crossed hands and wallets. 

Plaster casts of originals of various sizes, in the Museum of Antiqui- 
ties in Amsterdam, were kindly presented to the Society by Dr. T. H. 
Blom Coster, physician to the Queen of the Netherlands. 

The die, which has been cut by Tiffany & Co., is the property of the 



^r 



43 



Society. The medals, including the cups, the flagon, the orange ribbon 
and the pin, can be furnished in silver for six dollars ($6) each. They 
can also be supplied in gold for twenty-eight dollars ($28) each. Or- 
ders should be sent to, and checks made payable to the order of, Mr. 
F.ugene Van Schaick, Treasurer, 6 Wall Street, New York.
